Chelsea have signed striker Liam Delap from Ipswich Town after activating his £30million release clause. The 22-year-old has agreed to a six-year contract, having decided on a move to Stamford Bridge over several other interested clubs.

Chelsea have won the race to sign Liam Delap from Ipswich Town and all the details of his summer transfer have been revealed.

Lee Carsley has said he is "delighted" that Liam Delap signed with Chelsea and insisted that he is not disappointed over his decision to participate in the Club World Cup over the under-21 Euros.

Delap makes the switch after a £30million ($40m) release clause in his Ipswich contract became active following the team's relegation.
